[RE-wrenches] NRTL certification question

[Allan Sindelar]

Wrenches,
And now for something completely different... are TUV Rheinland or CE 
module certifications valid yet in the US?

I was called to consult for an off grid client who had purchased 40 250W 
generic Chinese modules through a friend who got them on Ebay... yeah, 
right. I got to be the one to tell him that I didn't think his $6,000 
purchase ($.60/watt) could be used in a permitted/inspected system, as 
the modules lacked the proper NRTL certification on the label. I sure 
hope for his sake that I'm wrong, and I said I would ask here.

These are Qunsheng New Energy, model QS-250P. No UL, ETL, CSA 
certification, just the ones above plus ISO.

Where can one find a list of NRTLs?

Thank you,
Allan
